I need help to set up MacOS X Server 10.1. I´ve been trying for a day to get it to work. MacOS X Server may be easy to set up, but if you haven´t got any experience with servers before it´s difficult on any platform. And thats the situation here.
Today we are running a Win2K-server. With some problems, mostly it´s the printers that´s not behaving like we want them to. It´s a mixed network with mac and pc. But the tendece is that we are going for a more mac-based network. Almost all the new recruits are using mac.
So here are the conditions:
Hardware
Server:
PowerMac G4 AGP 400 MHz, 128MB RAM (getting 128 more soon)
Clients:
2 OS X 10.1 Clients
4 OS 9.2.1 Clients
3 Win 98 Clients
3 Win 2k Clients
Printers:
HP LaserJet 2100Series (serial. I don´t think this will work with a mac?)
Epson Stylus Photo 1270
What services will we use and how things should work:
Filesharing:
One directory called "Public" and one called "Projects" where everyone has read and write privileges. One home directory for each user (this is working perfectly already. maybe because it´s automated
).
These three directories should mount automaticly on each client when they start up (is it possible?). I don´t want the "Users-directory" to mount, only the users personal directory.
Printing:
Printing for all clients! Working smoothely...
Web & FTP:
Apache with PHP and MySQL.
Files are going to be uploaded via ftp.
DHCP:
Should not be so hard to set up?
Ok. I think that´s about it. How should I get it to work like I want it to? And what´s not gonna work (what´s your alternate suggestion?)?
Thx in advance
